i think im in a blue phase. it just seems to pop in a way that no other color can do for me right now.

this is a small studio with stairs you should be careful walking up.

heart.jpeg

this was nearly climbing out of my chest tonight…

{this sort of looks like a strawberry…its definitly supposed to be a heart, as strawberries dont usually feel like theyre going to climb out of my chest!}

legs and lips

well some of you might actually be wondering why i havent posted in nearly a week, and i dont really have a good excuse. i could blame it on the fact that i am sick, or that i have 2 kids and a husband, or that i am back in school. but i wont.

this illustration pretty much sums up how i feel today: crazy hair, no body (because it hurts so bad from being sick), freckles, and an overall unappeal.

no worries though, i am progressively feeling better, tomorrow should be amazing!

“that was my shirt”

myshirt.jpeg

as my my husband usually sits in the evenings and reads, i try to take some time to draw after the girls have gone off to bed. One particular evening he was reading the brothers karamazov (for the second time), by dostoyevsky.

I asked him to tell me the last line that he read in hopes of some sort of inspiration. So he read: “how can you talk of joy…coughing as though you would tear yourself to pieces.”

For some reason, that i cant remember why, i drew a depressed-looking, weak man with his shirt torn to shreads…

illustration friday:{clandestine}

footsie.jpeg

ill be honest…when i read this weeks topic, i had no idea what it meant. so after looking it up, i learned that it means in secrecy, or held in secret. so the first thing that came to mind was something scandalous. that then led to a drawing of innocent footsie between two eccentric lovers…
